So my facts may be a little wrong, cuz I heard this from a guy who heard
it from a guy. Although there is profit to be had, it's hard to get
at. He described a pot sales operation in Colorado, where although it
is legal to sell it in the state, it is illegal on the national level,
so he can't claim any of that income at the federal level. So all money
is converted into Gold, and physically stored. He's guarded by all
Ex-military guys.

So, roughly $1K/plant. Maybe I will move to Colorado when I retire.
Gardening is easy, right?

60 Minutes did a little overview of the implementation of the pot law
in Colorado last night. They interviewed one guy doing an operation on
36 acres. He grows ~~ 22,000 plants, and grosses $20 million per year.
Each plant has an RFID tag on it. Interesting stuff. I noticed that
they also employed what looked like armed guards.
No room required. All out in the open air.

Once pot is legalized in Illinois, you can move your operation from
the grow tent to the grow room.
(Do you guys have any pot bills on the ballot)?

Somehow the Internet decided this was something I would be interested
in. I’m always seeing ads for stuff discussed on this list, so I’m
blaming it on you guys.

Put one at a tower site, have a nice, well-lighted work environment,
and make a little money on the side. Growing tomatoes, of course.
